Oki, two little things I learned...

There are at least three types of lock.

SIM-LOCK - You're locked on one provider
CID-LOCK - You're locked to one "manufacturer"
APP-LOCK - You can't install some stuff on your phone.


While the APP-LOCK can be disabled by simply using a registry editor (do a search, you'll find tons of answes), the other two are a bit more complex to get rid of.

CID-LOCK prevents you from installing a ROM from a different brand or distributor. Example, you bought a e650 and you want to install the non branded HTC rom? You can't. It will tell you "Invalid vendor id".
For this check the Bootloader thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=319663), some people here can do MAGIC.

For the SIM-LOCK... Well, either you pay your provider to unlock it for you or you go to a company able to do it. Still no way of doing this on our own.

Hi

Even if you flash the htc rom that is not sim locked it will not remove the sim lock as this is hard coded onto phone and currently can only be removed by imei check or your network provider, providing that they carry this phone. :eek:
